<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MoxNix</b></div><div>By some Flames fans you mean KingofRnR... For some unkown reason he really likes Graves and has wanted the Flames to acquire him for years.

Myself I'd be perfectly happy with a 3rd for Graves without retention if his contract only had 2 or even 3 years left instead of 5 years left. 5 years at 4.5 mil per doesn't fit the flames future but 5 years at 3.5 mil per would be fine.</div></div>
Yup Graves is a guy I like a lot. Big Canadian 2-Way Defensemen who handles a tremendous work load like Tanev did for us, yet can contribute offense

He’d be a complimentary D-Partner for Andersson or Miromanov and maybe eventually Brustewicz. He’s Young and his Cap Hit is fair. Besides, expecting a Team to retain for 5 seasons is simply unrealistic

I mean his CapFriendly Bio sums him up pretty well: <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/scouting-reports/players/ryan-graves">Ryan Graves CF Profile</a>

He’s just a guy I think would fit the Flames and I’d be willing to pay up to a mid-3rd for him, but if we can get him for less, even better!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MoxNix</b></div><div>The problem with Graves' contract is he has too much term. 2 years would ideal, 3 would be ok, 5 is 2 years too long.

And yeah if we can't get Sharky extended without overpaying then we should trade him but that's a decision that should be deferred until sometime next year... Unless of course we get a terrific offer for him now.</div></div>

Graves will only be 33 going on 34 when his contract expires. His Term is a non issue and he’s a Tradeable Asset AFAIC. He’s a Good Big Rugged Defensemen, something we need

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MoxNix</b></div><div>Why do you have Pittsburgh getting assets for dumping a contract? With all that term left on his contract Calgary would want retention on Graves to take him even just for future considerations.

I'd rather keep Sharky. Make it Markstrom + Mangi with retention on Mangi. Probably need to remove Pinelli too for LA to consider it.</div></div>
Meh, I think Graves is worth what Zadorov fetched, especially given he has term, but I’d be happy to pay less for sure

Yeah that works too. I just started with Markstrom and added another decent piece to entice LAK, but then figured we needed a prospect back if we were parting with Sharky. I guess I was thinking if we couldn’t get a favourable extension done with Sharangovich, we’d move him in a Trade for a Big &amp; Skilled Physical Centre

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bast</b></div><div>I think it's a little light for Andersson.

If it was the last year of his contract, then I could see a package similar to Hanifin.

We also have no use for Jarnkrok, because we already have 13 forwards signed for next year, and we need to make spots for Coronato, and Pelletier. With Schwindt, and Klapka fighting for 4th line duty.</div></div>
It’s a lot light. Andersson is worth more than double that return, especially with 2 yrs remaining at his Cap Hit. 1RD’s rarely come available and cost a premium when they do. VAN lucked out huge on the Hronek Trade

I’d be interested in seeing Jarnkrok Centre an offensive 4th line with Pelletier &amp; Coronato or when Size &amp; Grit is needed with Greer &amp; either Hunt/Klapka/Schwindt.

Jarnkrok’s a much better option than Rooney and can help Kill Penalties as well, not to mention he brings a Right Shot and Veteran Leadership/Mentorship for the Young Guns. Not sure he wants to return to Calgary or be used in that role though.
